Higher order power corrections in inclusive B decays

We discuss order 1/ m b 4 and 1/ m b 5 corrections in inclusive semileptonic decay of a B meson. We identify relevant hadronic matrix elements of dimension seven and eight and estimate them using the ground-state saturation approximation. Within this approach the effects on the integrated rate and o...

Description
Summary:We discuss order 1/ m b 4 and 1/ m b 5 corrections in inclusive semileptonic decay of a B meson. We identify relevant hadronic matrix elements of dimension seven and eight and estimate them using the ground-state saturation approximation. Within this approach the effects on the integrated rate and on kinematic moments are estimated. The overall relative shift in V cb turns out about +0 . 4% as applied to the existing fits. Similar estimates are presented for B → X s + γ decays.
